That explains that ;-). I don't mind if the patches stay in v5.10.y,
we have them reverted anyway.

The revert was a pure process issue, as you may see when looking into
commit c19861d34c003, so, yes, I agree that it is self-inflicted damage.
Still, that doesn't explain why the problem exists in 5.18+.

The following command sequence reproduces the problem for me with all stable
branches starting with 5.18.y (plus mainline).

rm -rf /tmp/crypto-build
mkdir /tmp/crypto-build
make -j CC=clang-15 mrproper >/dev/null 2>&1
make -j O=/tmp/crypto-build CC=clang-15 allmodconfig >/dev/null 2>&1
make -j O=/tmp/crypto-build W=1 CC=clang-15 drivers/crypto/virtio/virtio_crypto_akcipher_algs.o

I tried clang versions 14, 15, and 16. This is with my home system running
Ubuntu 22.04, no ChromeOS or Google specifics/internals involved. For clang-15,
the version is

Ubuntu clang version 15.0.7
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin
